good brother

"Here, your life card, you also tear off a piece of mine and keep it."

At night, Angel tore off a corner of the life card and handed the remaining large card to Ace.

"Ah."

Ace took out the life card and put it in his pocket, and then took out Angel's life card, and took a small piece of it privately, carefully sandwiching it behind the decoration of the hat.

"Then……"

After Angel confirmed that Ace would not lose the life card, he turned and looked at the sky full of stars.

"It's time to say goodbye."

Ace didn't speak, but just watched Angel silently with his back turned to him, as if he wanted to imprint his appearance at this moment firmly in his mind.

"Ace, before I leave, let me ask you one more question."

Angel turned his head, with a rare serious expression on Ace's face.

"Now, do you still hate Roger?"

Ace obviously didn't expect Angel to ask such a question suddenly, but after hearing Roger's name, before his brain gave a reaction, his eyes showed disgust.

"Ah, yes."

Ace frowned and said slowly.

"That guy's only influence on my life is to make me bear the infamy of a stranger. I have no reason not to hate him."

But he loves you.

Angor sighed helplessly.

"...Ace, although I don't expect you to change your mind now, I still want to say that other people's thoughts are meaningless to you. It doesn't matter if they praise you or scold you, as long as you live with your heart You have nothing to worry about, so there is no need to worry about it.”

"So, don't hate Roger just because of other people's words, not to mention that those people are short-sighted and incompetent. If you have a chance, you should ask those real strong people and see what they think of Roger. "

Ace pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

The real strong... is it...

"Angel, in your opinion, what kind of person is Roger?"

Ace asked suddenly.

"me?"

Angel was a little surprised, he touched his chin and thought for a while.

"Although I don't think I have the qualifications to judge that person, it's okay to say some thoughts."

Angel smiled slightly, looking straight into Ace's eyes.

"Roger is the guide of the new era, and time will tell."

"Then my younger brothers will become the most dazzling stars in the new era!"

Angel stepped forward, just like when he was a child, and gently embraced the somewhat confused Ace into his arms.

"So, you don't need to change your judgment because of Roger, and you don't need to keep emphasizing your hatred for Roger in your heart."

"Because, Ace, you will definitely surpass Roger!"

"During your long life, you will surely bring miracles to the world."

Where Ace couldn't see, there was a trace of determination in Angel's eyes.

"I promise!"

Guarantee that you will not die young again!

at all costs.

Even if...

"...I'm not a child anymore."

There was a hint of helplessness in Ace's voice, but the joyful emotion seemed to be overflowing.

"Yeah, already half a head taller than me."

Angel took a few steps back and looked up at Ace slightly.

"See you next time, you will be a head taller than me."

"Hee hee, probably~"

Ace looked at the "little" Angor in front of him with a smile, and subconsciously put his hand on Angor's head and rubbed it.

"..."

Both of them froze.

"that……"

Ace came back to his senses, smiled awkwardly, and slowly moved his stiff hand away.

"Angel... I didn't mean to!"

"……Snapped!"

Ace watched Angor bow his head in silence for a long time, and then suddenly slapped his face with both hands fiercely.

Ace: Black Question Mark.jpg

In fact, the reason why Angel didn't look up was...

He blushed! ! !

For the first time in two lifetimes, he was patted to death!

(Karp: I have touched it too! Angel: Get lost, old man!)

How to do how to do!

Ahhhhhhhhh, calm down first!

Then Angel slapped himself hard on the face...

It's... so calm...

"... Angel?"

Ace stretched out his hand tremblingly, but he didn't know where to touch to express comfort now.

"...No, it's fine."

Angor finally raised his head slowly under Ace's uneasy call, the blushing on his face was unknown whether he had hit him or was due to other reasons.

"Anyway! I'm going first!"

Angel turned around suddenly, with a bit of discomfort in his voice.

"Goodbye."

"Wait……"

Ace's outstretched hand finally left only a feather falling with the wind, and when he looked up again, Angel's back had merged with the deep night sky and there was no trace left.

A few days later, the Spade Pirate Ship.

Ace of Spades: "Hey, what's the matter with the boss these days? How can you be in a daze all afternoon by grabbing a feather?"

Spade B: "... lovesickness."

Ace of Spades: "Huh? What's that?"

Spade B: "...No, you don't need to know."

Ace sitting on the bow: Angor hates QAQ

Angel, who was already sitting in the office of the Navy Headquarters: "Ah-choo!"

Angel threw the pen down, and plunged into the pile of documents on the table.

"No, Vance, I'm sick, I can't approve documents anymore..."

"Do you need me to call the doctor for you?"

Vance pushed his glasses coldly.

"Your current level is enough to call a doctor for a special consultation."

"...you changed Vance..."

Angel reluctantly picked up the pen, and looked at the document in front of him like an enemy.

"I think you wouldn't hate me like that back then..."

"Work required."

Vance poured a cup of black tea for Angel.

"With your personality, it's impossible to play a bad role in front of your subordinates, so you can only let me play this role. After a long time, you will get used to it."

"...Thank you for your hard work, Vance."

Angor raised his head and smiled at Vance.

"The glasses are pretty nice, when did you buy them?"

"After approving the remaining 90.00% of the documents."

"..."

Angor looked at the pile of documents that Vance was pointing at, and suddenly felt that his conscience had been condemned.

...these... are only ten percent...

Because there was really no good consolation to think of, Angel had no choice but to turn his attention to the next document.

"Ok?"

Angel, who was only planning to take a cursory look at it, suddenly became concentrated.

"...Fans, did you go after the Revolutionary Army this month?"

"Ah."

With a glance, Vance knew which document Angel was approving.

"A new cadre of the Revolutionary Army appeared in the first half of the great route. The mobile team is faster, so he was assigned this task."

"New cadres..."

The corner of Angel's mouth twitched slightly.

"A young man named Sabo, because no photo was taken, there is no reward order yet."

"..."

It's only been a year and a half to become a cadre, as expected of my younger brother...

But why can't you notify me, motherfucker! (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻

"You know?"

Vance's glasses glare.

"...Well, don't tell me."

Angel scratched his head in distress.

"Didn't I tell you that my third brother died before? But he actually lost his memory and was picked up by the revolutionary army."

"...So, that Sabo is your brother?"

Vance couldn't help showing a surprised expression.

"That's right, I met him during my vacation in Xihai a year and a half ago."

Angel leaned back on the back of the chair, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window.

"So the sudden increase in vacation is to help him recover his memory..."

Vance looked at Angel with dead eyes.

"Then your one-month vacation this time is also for one of your younger brothers."

"Yeah, that popular newcomer named Portgas D. Ace."

Angel sat up straight.

"Zhan Guosang knows that he is my younger brother, so he won't let me go after him. This is our agreement."

Angel raised his head and looked at Vance with a smile.

"Help me pay more attention to their information in the future."

"...What about the other brother?"

"Monkey D. Luffy, he's going to sea in two more years."

Recalling that naughty and cute little Luffy, Angel's slightly lowered eyes were full of warmth.

"That guy is Garp's only grandson, and his character has also learned ten times ten."

"...That's really a disaster."

Vance shuddered as he imagined the two Caps staying together.

"Yosie, good job!"

Angor was full of energy after broadcasting it for a while, and began to approve the documents again.

"By the way, Vance, if there are any missions in the new world in the future, you can take them!"

"Yes Yes."

Vance rubbed his hair helplessly.

Most likely it was to meet that Ace secretly.

At that time, it is estimated that I will help Mr. Angel wipe his ass again.

Thinking of this in his heart, Vance looked at Angel who was working hard with his head down, but there was a doting smile on his face.

Well, for the sake of Mrs. Angel, I can endure a little bit of hard work.

"I can't do it, Vance...can you help me approve half of it again..." (T▽T)

"No." (-ι_-)

That's not "slightly" harder, Mr. Angel...

The author has something to say:

I asked for leave yesterday and forgot to say sorry here! ! ! 【Dogeza】

I originally said that I wanted to take a day off on May [-]st, but I thought yesterday was busy, so I passed it down to yesterday as a vacation!

Although it was said that the people in the group mentioned the holiday first, but I feel a little uneasy about not updating for a day.

I originally planned to add a little more size today, but found that it was a bit stuck...

Fortunately, this transitional chapter has been written, and it will be fine tomorrow.

Well, anyway, tomorrow I will add another chapter to reward readers!

Also, if you want to know the latest news about this article (including spoilers, updates, or activities in the group (such as a song meeting tonight)), you still need to join the group.
